Back in the late 80s I met Mel when I had him port the heads on my 77 HD Super Glide.  He was eccentric as hell back then and it doesn't look like he mellowed out with age. His bike that he was famous for was a chopper that would shoot out flames from the fiberglass dragon head he built on his bike. 



His shop was in Falcon, CO on the eponymous Dragon Man Drive. With all the stuff he's accumulated over the years I wouldn't doubt that he's still there.

Love the collection of 50s Chevies and I'd be happy to have one of those vintage jukeboxes but after that it all gets very strange.  Do I want to see Barbara playing the pin ball machine?  Na, don't think so...

Say, this guy is located in Colorado Springs.  Does anyone know of this guy and his museum?  Could be a great Saturday-ride destination for us this spring.
